Dürrbeck machine stretch wrap:
a lesson on stretching
At the core of machine stretch film is its stretch rate, also called elongation at break. Dürrbeck offers films with a stretch rate between 150 and 350%. For example, a stretch rate of 350% means that one metre of film can be stretched to four-and-a-half-metres. The film is stretched while wrapping the goods; it then contracts due to its inherent resilience, thus securing the load.
The high-quality multilayer film we use can achieve values as high as 350%, which ultimately also results in a significantly higher retensioning force for securing goods. This efficiency also saves you costs on materials!
What is machine stretch wrap and how does it work?
Machine stretch film is stretchable, extremely thin plastic film that is specially made for the mechanical wrapping of pallets. The advantage of machine packaging is that goods are much more evenly packaged with machine stretch film than by hand, and the process is also much faster – both factors that play a major role in most industrial sectors. Its ease of use means you need less preparation time for packaging.
Dürrbeck machine stretch film is extremely stretchable, puncture-resistant and tear-resistant. Customers can decide which stretch rate they would like – this is an important decision to determine how much the machine wrap will contract and ensure that the packaged goods are secure once wrapped. Depending on how your machine stretch wrap will be used, you may need greater or lesser hold. The quality of your machine stretch film is determined by the stretch rate – at Dürrbeck you can choose stretch wrap with a stretch rate of up to 350%! The proper stretch rate ensures the optimal utilisation of the material – an important factor in terms of energy and cost savings.
As the name says, machine stretch wrap is used by a pallet winder or stretch wrap machine (also known as pallet wrappers or pallet wrapping machines). These machines wrap goods easily and conveniently onto pallets, securing the cargo. Many stretch wrap machines have a rotary table on which the pallet is placed.
The choice of machine stretch wrap depends on what type of machine you use and what products should be secured. With decades of experience in the mechanical packaging of goods, Dürrbeck’s team of machine stretch wrap specialists will help you find exactly the product you need.
